1 NOTE: An error in the 1960 rural population count was discovered after the publication of CPH-2-1 from the 1990 Census. 2  The correct 1960 rural population using the 'Current urban definition' is 54,054,425.
Tyr (-5). Phe (-5). Role in structure: Glycine is a very unique amino acid in that in contains a hydrogen as its side chain (rather than a carbon as is the case in all other amino acids). This means that there is much more conformational flexibility in glycine.
But for the purposes of electronegativity, it is regarded as polar. It is an amino acid, where the carbonyl from the acid and the amino group are polar groups. The EN difference between C and O (carbonyl) is 1, which makes it polar, and for N and H (amine) it is 0.9. Glycine strongly exhibits hydrogen bonding.The amine hydrogens are bonded to the carbonyl oxygen. Glycine is soluble in water, due to its ionic nature.

In more detail: Is glycine a polar or nonpolar molecule? We need to use the electronegativity differences to help explain the answer. Can glycine exhibit hydrogen bonding? Explain. Is glycine soluble in water?
